Battle of Algiers i found to be a very unique film and original in its film styles and its plot line, something completey out of this world and so real. I listened to the audio of :: NPR Story: All Things Considered Audio , They believe it is one of the most realistic reenactments of a terrorism attack. It does portray a very terroristic style and without a doubt is filled with terrorism. It obviously is realistic because searches have been preformed like this for the safety of society. I feel that terrorism is left open to ones mind. It is a basic example of terrorism i believe, but if you use your head you can creat terrorism in a whole different mannor. I see that it relates to 9/11 very much because of the bombings. The bombings in the buildings were planned to work and work effectively, which they did, very similiar to 9/11. The bombings were planned strategically, and followed through with pride from terrorists. They did end up dieing in their bombings which is a difference but they all risked many dangers to help their side. I do believe that all countries are all different which they say, and to follow the movie as an example and the lines it draws. It is a guideline to terrorism and what the effects they can turn into towards a society which is a negative impact. Pride seems to be something that is the pushing force for each side, not to lose and to never give up. It seems that no one ever will give up to save lives, they must live and prove a point that they are the dominant force. Their seems to not be a peaceful way out of it if it starts in a violent way. All in all, I feel the Battle Of Algiers is a great example of how to address a terrorist problem and how to possibly react to it with the least pain inflicted towards a side or another.
